Robust Voltage Control of Floating Interleaved Boost Converter for Fuel Cell Systems.

In this paper, a robust voltage control is designed for a floating interleaved boost converter with high voltage gain. The proposed controller has an inner loop based on super-twisting sliding mode algorithm, which has continuous control signal and the sliding surface is defined for the inductor current. The reference current value is generated by active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) algorithm in the outer loop, based on the output voltage error. The stability of the sliding mode inner loop and the ADRC outer loop are proven using Lyapunov stability theorem and Routh–Hurwitz criteria, respectively. The robustness of the proposed controller is analyzed in depth, and validated by the simulations and experimental results obtained with a 100 W prototype converter. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
